I backed up my iPhone first then did a factory reset so I could get the iOS 8 update and now that I have it, my phone won't restore
Idk what's happening and I really hope I did not lose EVERYTHING on my phone. After the backup and reset, I updated my phone to iOS 8 and during the updating process on iTunes it said backing up or something like that and then I instantly thought "noo! backing up what? theres nothing on my phone right now" so i think it was backing up my phone after I reset everything up to my computer so during that I THINK I pressed restore iPhone while it was updating to iOS 8 and i did that because it said it was backing up when there was nothing on my iPhone and everything from my phone is on my computer so I tried to restore it during the updating process just to make sure everything went back to my phone. Then the update got corrupted. I don't think it was the stuff I backed up because it was already on the computer and it was the update that wasn't finished so I think it was the update that got corrupted. Now I have iOS 8 and every time I try to restore my phone it says it restored but nothing ever happens, it brings me to the "Hello" screen every time. Then when I get to the set up as new iPhone or restore from iCloud/itunes screen I try to restore it again and back to the "Hello" screen I go. PLEASE HELP ME GUYS PLEASE!
I went back to iOS 7 and my backup file is restoring but when its done nothing is on my phone still and only takes 11-15 minutes to restore the backup instead of taking 25+ minutes like usual so I guess the backup is corrupted. How can I fix this?

i did the ios udate and now have no music on my phone. it is saying my music is there on itunes but nothing when I go into it on my phone? Have checked that the sync all music box is ticked? any ideas?
If you JUST updated, you may need to leave the phone connected and give it time as it is still syncing even though you are able to use your phone. That is part of the new OS, the ability to use your phone while it is processing in the background. If that's not the issue, try what the previous reply suggested. That's what worked for me when my music appeared to be in my iPod, but would not play.

After getting computer repaired it said I had too many computers authorized and couldn't add (I've only had ONE computer to sync with itunes so don't know how it counted 5) Required that I deauthorize all computers and then reauthorize again. Did that and now previous data, music, playlists, audio books, etc won't sync with my iphone. How do I correct that and get iphone to sync with everything I have on itunes?

I have an iPhone 4, and I go to Settings, General, Software Update, and it says iOS 5.1.1 and I tap on the Install Now, and Agree, then i get the verifying update, and then it says "unable to install update, an error occured installing iOS 5.1.1
I have exactly the same problem. iPhone 4S, never been jailbroken. Not behind a firewall and it happens whether I am on my home compute (iTunes) or directly thru Settings_Update.
Looks like loads of people are having the same problem - and as far as I can see, Apple's sole reply is jailbreak or behind firewall/ security settings/anti-virus. None of those apply here! -
just got a replacement iPhone 4s and i let the battery run down all the way before charging it and now that i have put it on the charger it won't turn back on or show any signs that it is charging. its just a black screen. how do i fix it
Keep iPhone on wall charger for ten minutes, it may turn ON itself. If still nothing, keep on charger and Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 20 seconds until the iPhone begins to respond.

I did the iTunes update and now I am getting a Windows error 126 message.
I did the iTunes update and now I am getting a Windows error 126 message. Now I can't use iTunes at all. Any ideas?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

I would like to get the downloads tab to go back to the way it was, before this most recent update. Now that I have the latest update of Firefox, it moved over to the right. The little hand won't budge it. And the download interface is different, now it is under something called 'library', I liked the old way much better - any way to restore it to that?
Can you clarify what you mean with ''downloads popup/tab''
Is this the pop-up that you see when finishing a download or do you mean the pop-up you see if you hover a link?
When a download is in progress then you see a download progress bar on the Navigation Toolbar instead of the Download Manager button and that button is highlighted once the download has finished to make you aware the their are new downloads.
You can view the new Download Manager in a tab by opening the about:downloads page and consider to open this page in a separate window. -

It sounds like you are having an issue with the upgrade to your iPhone’s version of iOS, a frustrating situation to be sure. Let’s see if we can get you back up and running.

My iMac locks up constantly in email. I click on one or two emails. Then when I click on another email, I get the spinning wheel and have to relaunch. Why does it get confused and lock up? Seems like it is stuck.
10.6.8 here, MacBook Pro. Comcast. Mail freeze ups. Occasional warnings to use "Log Out" under the Apple icon.
Disk Repair run several times. Shows lots of Java "remote" issues.
I run Disk Repair several times, shows a lot of Java, "remote" issues.
Restart don't know if it helps, I do it all the time. What's with quitting Mail but it doesn't quit, and why a separate maneuver to "Log Out".

i was editing vacation photos in aperture 3 all of a sudden the thumbnail disappeared and now all i have is a vertical white line and an orange flag... how do i get my photo back? thanks
Hi Frank.
I have just had jb Atlanta's problem while adjusting the contrast on a photo. I was creating a slideshow at the time. After a lot of reading up I was about to give up when I tried restoring the file to its original settings as you suggested. Bingo!
However, that would only work for me, if I restored the settings while in the slideshow. All data had 'disappeared' when I attempted to open the photo in its original project folder.
Hope this is of help. Many thanks. -

so frustrated.Well its defintiely nothing that Apple can activate to fix this. They would be able to troubleshoot with you though. This may be able to be resolved if its something software related.
